Members caeman Posted December 2, 2012 Members Share Posted December 2, 2012 Sorry about my post all - I meant to come off silly/self-depricating and ended up coming off snarky (get it?! Ha!...uh, sorry). In a weird mood today as an oil change turned into a $1,000 repair. ANYWAY - happy to be a part of this again and sorry about my idiot post above. Exactly HOW BAD must one be at an oil change to do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Lou Speed Posted December 2, 2012 Members Share Posted December 2, 2012 OK, maybe a sorta complicated question? Budget board says, "Mainly cheap Pedals under 100$, max. one Pedal up to 200$". Is there any leeway here? What if I have several pedals that were under 100 new, 1 pedal that was close to 200 new and 1 pedal that was 115 new? SHould i just leave the 115 pedal off? I'll be honest and say I bought it new for 115 but at one time they were going for under 100 on the used market. I remember years ago someone entered the budget category and a had a Crunch Box on their board. People were giving them grief because it was over 100 new. I'm not sure what they were going for new at the time but when I bought mine new they were $110. The subject of used prices came up and people were saying things like, "well, sometimes you get a great deal but it shouldn't count as a budget pedal". So... i dunno... just want to get the whining and complaining out of the way before the actual competition starts. It seems the description says , "mainly cheap pedals under $100 max. one Pedal up to 200$". So would several pedals under 100 new, 1 pedal just shy of 200 new, and one pedal just over 100 new (115) be a problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm in the same boat, I got all of mine used and the only one that was over a hundred was the Headrush. My Holy Grail is about 120. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members hooya Posted December 2, 2012 Members Share Posted December 2, 2012 Originally Posted by goodhonk budget board means dano's, modtones, mooers, etc... This would be my interpretation as well. To me a budget board with any pedal over $100 is not "budget" when a DS-1 is $50 brand new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AngryGoldfish Posted December 2, 2012 Members Share Posted December 2, 2012 Yeah, to me a Crunch Box would be the exception, the $200 pedal, while everything else would be Boss, Joyo, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hangwire Posted December 2, 2012 Members Share Posted December 2, 2012 so this is basically a bragging rights show and tell, no one wins anything for winning a catagory, but all entrants are put in a random drawing for "door prizes"? I never paid attention to BOTB until last year when ren told me "just {censored}ing enter mang" even though I have been a hcfx'er for years.

Members t-rey Posted December 2, 2012 Members Share Posted December 2, 2012 Originally Posted by hangwire so instead of just showing my board, i should fill it up to show some of my neat backup stuff. Certainly wouldn't be the only board put together just for botb. I say go for it if you have some cool {censored} that you want to show off And what exactly constitutes boutique? All of my pedals were made by small companies and some were quite expensive, but I never considered it a boutique board in the past - I always thought that category was for the BJFE, hw Mad Professor, DAM, Toneczar type of stuff. Someone asked if I was going for the boutique category in the pedalboard thread, and now I'm not so sure how I should enter. HCFX WAT DO?
